Breakfast

Outstanding quality and variety; fresh pastries, eggs, salmon, charcuterie, cheeses, fruits, yogurt, granola, homemade cakes and pastries; automatic espresso machine; fresh-pressed juices (kiwi-detox, grapefruit, orange); worth the extra cost; served 7am–11am daily

Local knowledge

Request rooms x04, x05, x06 on higher floors for street views; lower-floor street-side rooms may be noisier

Book the family suite (two adjoining rooms with separate bathrooms) for groups of 4+; far more comfortable than standard doubles

Arrive by 9am for early check-in; staff will store luggage and provide complimentary coffee if room isn't ready
